K-Factor Explanation made easy

[jmartz13]

I have been given the painstaking task to calculate K-factors for our materials. The trick is that we deal only in refractory metals and I have yet to see any published data or literature to support testing that has already been done. So with that task at hand, my company fabricates everything in-house. I have used this site for its wealth of information and also www.eng-tips.com another one of my favorites. See attached diagram for calculating your own K-factors.
It was difficult to find a one-page diagram that was self-explanatory and that anyone could understand it by looking at it.
Good Luck.

Hi, I'd be interested in getting that file too. Can you send it to the autodesk.inventor.customer-files? Maybe if you zipped it... it might improve things. Good day. Dominic.
